Make Great Treats From Leftover Bread!

Introduction: Make Great Treats From Leftover Bread!

So... you bought a six back of frozen burgers instead of grabbing the ground beef an pattiying out... six burgers. darn! The buns come in eight packs. Am I to buy six 8 packs of buns and eight 6 packs of burger to make 48 servings! But I just have a family of four! Why do they make non-bun length hot dogs for that matter? Anyway, what do I do with the leftovers!?!

Step 1: Prep the Ingredients

So no matter what you choose there's still buns left over. Well, let's make something of it. What can be applied?

Butter

Cinnamon

Sugar

Confectioners Sugar

Milk

Step 2: Spread the Butter

Spread the butter on the bread.

Step 3: Pour on the Flavor

In this recipe we're making cinnamon roll style bread. For that we will use a cinnamon sugar mix. I generally use about 1 part cinnamon to 1 part sugar while other recipes use more sugar to cinnamon. Pouring the cinnamon sugar mix on the bread over a sink help eliminate mess. Go ahead and through the buns into a conventional oven and heat 'em up. 350*F on the bake setting or use a toast setting. About 5 minutes should be sufficient but you can heat to your preference.

Step 4: Mix the Icing

While the bread is cooking, pour some confectioners sugar in a dish, proportional to what you will need. Add just a drop of milk and stir well. The recipe I found this concoction from called for 1 tablespoon of milk to 3/4 cup of confectioners sugar, which makes a lot! The mixture will blend surprisinglngly well. If you have achieved a thick mixture that satisfies your taste you have succeeded!

Step 5: Spread It On! Serve

Drizzle the icing mixture on the bread If it doesn't spread well, try heating the mixture up shorty in the microwave.

Serve!

Step 6: Other Options

If you end up with extra hot dog buns, sub-sandwich buns, or of coarse regular loaf bread, you can use them just the same. The cinnamon sugar can be substituted for a garlic salt blend, Rosemary and roasted dried tomatoes blend, or other delicious combinations including parmesan cheese to revamp a plain old bread.
